With only three hours left to spare until I am whisked away to a culture that I have yet to understand, I asked Camille to watch Les Mis with me at the free movie theater at IU.
The movie swayed me back and forth, was worth every minute, and really got me back on my feet.
I have harbored a stereotype towards the people who I will be facing this coming week. I was not ready for it and had started questioning the Lord quickly for the past two days.
He has been helping me understand that each person has a background story, and the reasons for actions are varied.
But this movie made it much more clear to me. Life is dark. The majority of those in the world do not live as we in the United States do. The Lord has given us this life to make clear to our points in the world that there is hope, and that God is here.
Check out the movie, and let me know if you see the desperation, sacrifice, grace, mercy, and true hope that only Jesus Christ can give.
Incredible :)
